True, Clare brings a certain physical prowess to her work, as amply demonstrated by her full wind-up technique with a fireplace poker; but I still give the crazy-mean award to the Flame Widow. Clare just cold-heartedly kills them - FW truly enjoyed listening to them screech as they burned alive. -- Mykal

* By the time she smacked him in the face on the bottom of pg. 3, I knew I was in love.

* Top of pg. 5: "You forgetting that you promised to feed, honor, and obey me already?" When did FEED make it into the vows?

* "Certainly odd that we should meet that way...just casually bumping into one another at a bar!" ZOMG HOW FREAKIN' WEIRD!

* Lack of evidence? I guess a fingerprinted fireplace poker and blood all over the house won't stand up in court in Wichita. "But it's quite apparent you are an evil and wicked woman!" I'll say! AAAAAROOO!

* I hate to see Clare go down in a sting like that--especially without delivering on the bondage promise of the splash. But Clare doesn't cater to any man's whims, that much is plain.

I loved the BLACK SORCERY ad too! It's nice how all those ads on that one page go together. They must have assumed at least a partial female readership, no?

Great as always Karswell! I'm going to have to stop being so scarce around here.
